Offensive ‘Sorry’ email hits in-boxes
So apparently I am, according to Mark Schliebs of the Commie Mail, Offensive, Causing Outrage, Causing a backlash, Causing Shock, and according to that most august of institutions, the A(LP)BC I am guilty of the following thought crimes-
“presented Aboriginal people in a completely negative light and served to reinforce negative stereotypes.”
“Aboriginal people are portrayed as being ignorant, savage, lazy, ungrateful and totally dependent on non-indigenous Australians… the attribution of these behavioural traits to an entire race and their culture amounts to vilification.”
Guess what, I’m still not sorry. By the way, now that we have apologised, can we have our money back??
I read that email, but i was intelligent enough to know it’s not all Aboriginal people. Not sorry either.
